Hanwha Aerospace presented its K9 Thunder, Chunmoo and L-SAM systems to Danish defence officials during DALO Industry Days on 19–20 August. The South Korean group used the event to pursue opportunities in Denmark and discuss broader cooperation with European partners.

The company’s display covered land warfare, integrated air defence and precision-guided munitions. It included the K9 Thunder self-propelled howitzer, Chunmoo multiple rocket launcher system and L-SAM long-range air-defence system.

Hanwha said the Danish Armed Forces showed strong interest in its portfolio. Discussions focused on precision firepower, operational readiness and interoperability rather than individual platforms alone.

Long-term industrial cooperation was also part of the talks. Hanwha positioned its systems as potential responses to changing operational and security requirements across Europe.

Norwegian company Dacon AS displayed its ROBINCA Gun Barrel Measuring System at Hanwha’s stand. The equipment supports artillery maintenance through gun-barrel inspection and condition monitoring over a system’s operational life.

Hanwha said it plans to continue working with Denmark and other European partners. The company aims to tailor its defence products to national operational requirements.
